Stems

Ritchey WCS 4-Axis Stems feature a contoured faceplate with four closely-spaced bolts, distributing flex and stress across a large clamping area, that provides security while reducing risk of damaging lightweight carbon handlebars. - Specially designed forged and contoured 4-bolt faceplate for use with today's lightweight, oversized carbon and alloy bars - 3-D Net forged from 2014 alloy for a superb strength-to-weight ratio

The WCS C220 stem is easy to install and remove thanks to a press-fit handlebar clamp interface and forward-facing hardware. - The handlebar clamp design creates a more secure interface by wrapping a full 220 degrees over the handlebar - Bolt forces are aligned with the clamp so that the stem body embraces the handlebar which is less prone to damaging lightweight bars - Clamp design allows for a lighter faceplate and stem body with no sacrifice in strength or stiffness

More than just a beefed-up version of Ritchey's other stems, the WCS Trail 35 stem features their patented C220 clamp fits a wide variety of riser bar bends and still packs a dramatic increase in stiffness and strength over competitors' designs. The 35mm clamp diameter takes advantage of the increased stiffness and power of larger diameter handlebars. - 3D Forged 2014 alloy for superior strength and lightweight - 220 degree, extra-wide bar clamp improves stiffness and fits most riser bars - Oversize 35mm bar clamp for use with 35mm OD handlebars - Material: 3D Forged 2014 alloy - Rise: 0° - Stack Height: 45mm - Faceplate Width: 40mm - 130g (70mm)

The Ritchey WCS Trail Stem represents Ritchey's first stem specifically designed for today's 5-6-inch travel trail bikes using wide bars. More than just a beefed-up version of other stems, with the Trail stem we revised the patented C260 clamp to a 220-degree version that fits a wider variety of riser bar bends and still packs a dramatic increase in stiffness and strength over competitor's designs. Using 3D Forged 2014 alloy, the WCS Trail Stem serves up superior strength while remaining lightweight. The extra-wide bar clamp takes stiffness to the next level, fits most riser bars, and ensures plenty of confident control out on the trail. - Material: 3D Forged 2014 alloy - Lengths: 35 - 110mm - Angle: Zero rise - Steerer Height: 45mm - Faceplate Width: 40mm - Steerer: 1-1/8” - Ritchey Blatte finish - 115g (70mm)
